JD Sports staff told to go into office more | Pubs could stay open longer for Euros | 12% interest offer | TikTok music restored
JD Sports has told head office staff they must return to the office at least four days a week.
The new amendment to the hybrid working policy will be effective from 1 July and will impact employees at the retail chain’s head office in Bury, Retail Gazette reports.
However, the chain will still allow flexibly depending on individual roles.

He said: “I will certainly look into it.”
We’ve been bringing you news of plenty of bank switch deals offering free cash these past few months, but Virgin Money has a different kind of incentive for switchers – a 12% interest rate.
People who switch to its M Account, M Plus Account or Club M Account will be able to get bonus interest rates of 10% gross/10.47% AER (fixed).
This is on top of the 2% gross/2.02% AER (variable) interest rate already offered on current account balances up to £1,000 – meaning customers can get an interest rate of 12%.
No other savings accounts offer interest rates this high, and the bonus applies for a year.
TikTok will restore millions of songs to its app after settling a royalty dispute with Universal Music Group.
Users had been unable to make videos featuring songs from the likes of Billie Eilish and Ariana Grande due to a row over how much TikTok was paying.
The fight had led to Universal withdrawing music from some of the world’s most famous singers.
The dispute appears to have been settled as the companies announced “improved remuneration” for artists.
